Ann Telnaes, Who Resigned From The Washington Post After Trump Cartoon Was Rejected, Wins Pulitzer Prize [View all]

Ann Telneas, who quit the Washington Post earlier this year after the publication rejected a cartoon depicting tech and media executives trying to curry favor with Donald Trump, was among the recipients of a Pulitzer Prize on Monday.

Telneas was recognized for “delivering piercing commentary on powerful people and institutions with deftness, creativity – and a fearlessness that led to her departure from the news organization after 17 years.”

(snip)

At the time she left the Post, Telnaes wrote, “The cartoon that was killed criticizes the billionaire tech and media chief executives who have been doing their best to curry favor with incoming President-elect Trump.”
